Prefinished Caladiums for Commercial Growers
Bates Sons & Daughters

Capital Caladiums Company is a pre-finished caladium pot company. Sheri Bates and Terri Bates, owners of Bates Sons & Daughters, also own and operate Capital Caladiums. It was started in 1987 because they felt there was a need in the greenhouse industry for pre-finished caladiums. Today greenhouse growers all over the country as well as landscape companies are using pre-finished caladiums.

Advantages for Greenhouse Growers:

Saves heat and bench time. Pots, regardless of size, should finish out in 3-5 weeks.

All de-eying, dependent upon pot size and variety, is done before planting.

Fertilization is already done.

Unlike a finished caladium pot shipped out of FL, these caladiums will acclimate to their new environment and will not be past their peak upon arrival.

Each pot is tagged by variety with specific variety picture, growing instructions, and sun tolerance.

If the customer has a branded pot or tag, we can pot their order with their pots or tags.

There is no minimum if a heated truck can be arranged.

All varieties offered by Bates Sons & Daughters are available to the pre-finished customers.
